Isaiah 2:10-17
World English Bible
10 Enter into the rock,
and hide in the dust,
from before the terror of Yahweh,
and from the glory of his majesty.
11 The lofty looks of man will be brought low,
the arrogance of men will be bowed down,
and Yahweh alone will be exalted in that day.
12 For there will be a day of Yahweh of Armies for all that is proud and arrogant,
and for all that is lifted up;
and it shall be brought low:
13 for all the cedars of Lebanon, that are high and lifted up,
for all the oaks of Bashan,
14 for all the high mountains,
for all the hills that are lifted up,
15 for every lofty tower,
for every fortified wall,
16 for all the ships of Tarshish,
and for all pleasant imagery.
17 The loftiness of man shall be bowed down,
and the arrogance of men shall be brought low;
and Yahweh alone shall be exalted in that day.
Isaiah 2:10-17
International Standard Version
The Coming Day of the Lord
10 [a] “Go into the rocks!
Hide in the dust
to escape[b] the terror of the Lord
and to escape[c] the glory of his majesty![d]
11 The[e] haughty looks of mankind will be brought low,[f]
the lofty pride of human beings will be humbled,
and the Lord alone will be exalted at that time.[g]
12 “For the Lord of the Heavenly Armies has reserved[h] a time[i]
to oppose[j] all who are proud and haughty,
and the[k] self-exalting—
they will be humbled.
13 He will take his stand[l] against all the cedars[m] of Lebanon,
against the proud and self-exalting;
and against all the oaks of Bashan;
14 against all the high mountains,
and against all the lofty hills;
15 against every high tower,
and against every fortified wall;
16 against all the ships from Tarshish,
and against all their impressive watercraft.
17 “Humanity’s haughtiness will be humbled,
male arrogance will be brought low,
and the Lord alone will be exalted in that day.
